Easy2Boot v1.35 added

26/04/2014 00:17

Previous versions of Easy2Boot allowed you to set a master password in the MyE2B.cfg file. Unless you knew the password, you could not get to the E2B menu. However, this password was also requested whenever a Fastload cache refresh was done or the main menu was reloaded. This has now been changed so that the master password is only requested on boot or reboot (or changing from the CSM menu to the E2B menu when using .imgPTN images).

The other small change was to add a NOHELPER variable in the MyE2B.cfg file. This prevents E2B from searching for a Helper USB flash drive just before the Main menu is loaded. This may save several seconds of boot time on some systems. This option should only be used if you are booting from a 'Removable' type of USB Flash drive or if you don't ever need to use a Helper flash drive. A Helper flash drive is required if you boot from a USB HDD and need to use Windows Vista/7/8 install ISOs, the 'Install XP using WinPE' option, or boot from those WinPE ISOs that also need to load the ISO as a virtual drive.
